HARTFORD, Conn. – The Trinity College Field Hockey team registered their third shutout of the season, holding visiting University of New England off the scoreboard in a 4-0 win at Robin L. Sheppard Field Sunday afternoon. With the win, the Bantams improve to 4-1 on the season, while the Nor'easters drop to 2-5 overall.

The Nor'easters looked to get on the scoreboard with 2:00 remaining in the first period, but Trinity senior goalkeeper Olivia McMichael (Glenside, Pa.) delivered a pair of clutch saves on a penalty corner from UNE. As time was winding down in the first quarter, Bantams first-year Brooke DiBiase (Chatam, N.J.) knocked a loose ball through traffic and into the back of the cage, giving Trinity a 1-0 lead.

In the 26^th minute of action, the Bantams added to their lead as senior Katrina Winfield (Wilmington, Del.) dished the ball to junior Ashley Zigler (Falls Church, Va.), who placed a shot past Nor'easters junior keeper Dawn DeWeese-Moss (Pittsfield, Maine), extending the Trinity advantage to 2-0. The Bantams held the 2-0 lead into halftime.

Less than six minutes into the third period, Trinity junior Izzy Deveney (Westport, Conn.) connected with Winfield to put the Bantams ahead 3-0. With just over five minutes remaining in regulation, sophomore Harper Siemens (Tulsa, OK) gathered a loose ball near the UNE goal and tucked a shot into the back of the net, sending Trinity to the 4-0 victory.

The Bantams outshot the Nor'easters, 26-4, and won the penalty corner battle, 10-3. McMichael recorded three saves for Trinity, while DeWeese-Moss logged a game-high 14 stops for UNE.

Trinity will look to remain in the win column when they host Springfield College at 6:00 p.m. at Robin L. Sheppard Field Wednesday. UNE travels to Johnson & Wales Wednesday for a 4:00 p.m. match.
